http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2008/07/27/politics/fromtheroad/entry4297588.shtmlLess than 24 hours after his return from his whirlwind, 10-day overseas trip, Barack Obama will speak to the UNITY ’08 convention of minority journalists this morning.
This will be Obama’s first U.S. campaign appearance following his trip to European, the Middle East, Afghanistan and Iraq.
Shirking exhaustion, Obama, who never seems to miss a day of working out, will visit the gym before his speech.
The convention will consist of a panel of journalists moderated by CNN’s Suzanne Malveuax and Romesh Ratnesar, world editor of TIME magazine. The panel includes NBC’s John Yang, Leonard Pitts of the Miami Herald, Dianne Solis of the Dallas Morning News, and Brian Bull of Wisconsin Public Radio.
